НАО «Медицинский университет Астана» Theater or cinema? Prepared by: Hayrullaeva Nigina Checked by: Mynbosynova G.E Nur-Sultan, 2022. Introduction Nowadays the theatre is less popular than the cinema. Due to the popularity of television and the since appearance of video, theatre has lost a great deal of its attraction. Besides, theatre tickets are very expensive, especially in good theatres. So we can say that a visit to a famous theatre has become a luxury. Nevertheless, the theater is an integral part of the intellectual life of any country. One can even say that theater as an art reflects the state of society and the minds of the nation. In each country, the theater has its own history, traditions and peculiarities. There are many theaters in Russia, and some of them are popular all over the world. Fans of serious music never miss the opportunity to visit the Philharmonic Hall. Opera and ballet lovers can go to the Mariinsky or Maly Opera Theaters. Those who love drama attend the Bolshoi Drama Theater. Over the past five to ten years, many new theaters and studios have appeared. Many theaters are famous for their magnificent troupes, scenery, wonderful directors. I don't belong to the inveterate theatergoers, so I don't go to performances. ➔ The hall is separated from the stage by a curtain. A lot of people mostly prefer chairs in the front rows of the stalls or in the dress circle. ➔ From there they can clearly see the scene, everything is heard and seen without binoculars. Sitting on the balcony is not profitable. ➔ It is usually difficult to get a ticket there, they are all sold out in advance. I like cinema more, although it does not create such a festive atmosphere. When I have free time, I often go to see some new movie. Mostly I visit the cinema in Khanshatyr. This is a modern building with a very large hall. In the lobby you can see photos of movie stars and advertising posters of films that will be shown soon. When I want to go to the cinema, I watch posters of new films on the Internet. It is interested in the list of cinemas and what is going on there today. I go to the movies either with my sister or with friends. We like movies that have a lot of action and tension, and sometimes we enjoy watching a good comedy. The first movie I saw in the cinema was a movie about dinosaurs - "Jurassic World". Theatre versus cinema THANK YOU FOR WATCHING!
